I don't get on very well with Christmas songs. Most of them are too twee for my tastes and there's usually a distinct absence of power chords.
Would it surprise you to learn that the only Christmas songs I really like are Slade's "Merry Xmas Everybody" and TSO's take on "Carol Of The Bells"?
Up until now.
White Pigeon are a not-entirely serious bunch of British Hard-Rockers from Guildford, best described as "A bit like The Darkness without the eyewatering vocals", and the only rock band ever to do a song about squash.
This week they release their attempt on the Christmas charts.
It might be bordering on sacrilige but damn, this song is catchy as hell. Guitarists aren't bad either.
A song that says more about Christmas than anything Cliff Richard ever put out.

Is it too late to get "Baby Jesus" to the #1 spot?
